Conventional monopolar transurethral resection of prostate in patients with large prostate 80 grams
INTRODUCTION: Transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP) is still regarded as the gold standard for the treatment of lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) secondary to benign prostate obstruction in prostates between 30 and 80 mL. Endoscopic treatment of large prostate is not adequately discussed in literature. Our objective was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of TURP in large prostate glands (≥80 ml) in patients with BPH. MATERIAL AND METHODS: From May 2004 to September 2012, 62 patients with high volume of BPH (≥80 ml) treated with TURP by single surgeon, were evaluated retrospectively. Perioperative and postoperative full blood count and serum electrolytes, complications, operative time, weight of resected prostate tissue, time for catheter removal, and hospitalization time were recorded. Conventional TURP was performed using a standard technique. RESULTS: The mean PSA levels and prostate volumes were 8 ±5.38 ng/ml and 90.93 ±13.95 gm, respectively. The mean operating time was 55.96 ±8.04 minutes. The mean amount of tissue resected was 52.21 ±7.59 gm. Compare with baseline, there were significant improvements in International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS), Quality of Life (QoL), maximum urinary flow rate (Qmax), and postvoiding residual urine after surgery. There was no major bleeding complication. There was no TUR syndrome or intraoperative death. Requiring re–catheterization was detected for 3 (4.8%) patients. Transient urge incontinence was observed for 3 (4.8%) patients. Bulbar urethral stricture was developed for 2 (3.2%) patients. CONCLUSIONS: Morbidity of the TURP is decreased with the technological improvements. Conventional monopolar TURP can be effectively performed in large prostate (≥80 mL) with the experience

Applying critical pressure to middle cerebral artery in dogs
The purpose of our model was to provide maximum pressure level of the middle cerebral artery (MCA) without causing any histological variation like focal cerebral ischaemia. In this experimental study 9 dogs were used. A modified Spetzler occluder was applied to the MCA of the dogs to determine regional cerebral blood flow (rCBF) and somatosensory evoked potentials (SSEP). Seven animals underwent the surgical procedure with measurements of rCBF after arterial microdissection and then after applying 80% blood pressure (BP) to the MCA for 15 minutes. In rCBF a 29% average reduction was observed. The average value of rCBF at the end of 15 minutes was 63.5 ± 6.52 ml/100 g min. Simultaneous somatosensory evoked potential recordings were also obtained. When rCBF was reduced 29%, 80% BP applying to MCA did not cause complications

It is designed to encourage students to work in groups on projects concerning any topic of their choice that relates to the history of Turkey. It is designed as an interactive course with an emphasis on research and the objective of investigating events, chronologically short historical periods, as well as historic representations. Students from all departments prepare and present final projects for examination by a committee, with 10 projects chosen to receive awards.Includes bibliographical references (page 19).by Abdürrahim Özer
